I Just Saw Muppet Treasure Island At The El Capitan Theatre In Hollywood And It Was Amazing. #ElCapitanTheatre #MuppetTreasureIsland #MuppetTreasureIsland30 #Muppets #D23 #Disney #WaltDisneyStudios #WaltDisneyCompany
I'm Here At The El Capitan Theatre In Hollywood Getting Ready To See Muppet Treasure Island In Celebration Of The Film's 30th Anniversary This Year. #ElCapitanTheatre #MuppetTreasureIsland #MuppetTreasureIsland30 #Muppets #D23 #Disney #WaltDisneyStudios #WaltDisneyCompany
I hope to point out my fan art portrait of Mr. Bimbo, who lives in the index finger of Squire Trelawney's left hand. One of my favorite pirate movies, hands-down! I could name other movies, but I don't want to *wrist* it (get it? Wrist? Risk?).

CAPTAIN SMOLLETT: Where to, Captain Hawkins?
JIM HAWKINS: To wherever the wind may take us!
GONZO: Off to Zanzibar to meet the Zanzibarbarians!
RIZZO THE RAT: Oh, brother! Here they go again!
#MuppetTreasureIsland30
RIZZO THE RAT: I've gone way beyond afraid. Right now I'm somewhere between bedwetting and a near death experience.

STATLER: "Take a cruise," you said. "See the world," you said. Now here we are, stuck on the front of this stupid ship.
WALDORF: Well, it could be worse. We could be stuck in the audience.

BLIND PEW: Oh a pretty little girl is it? Yes, take me to Billy Bones, ma pet!
JIM HAWKINS: You've got it all wrong, there's no Billy Bones here, and I'm not a girl!
BLIND PEW: I may be visually challenged, but I can see you're lying!

I have a lot to thank the Muppets for. Including my introduction to both Robert Louis Stevenson’s greatest adventure and to Tim Curry himself.
I was never the same since.

JIM HAWKINS: I hate my life.
GONZO: I hate your life, too.
RIZZO THE RAT: If I had a life, I'd hate it.
